Angiomyxoma is a rare benign tumor prone to aggressive and invasive growth and relapse. Very few case reports of tumors with this morphology have been published in the world literature. In this paper, we report a rare case of penile angiomyxoma, which illustrates that any preoperative examination does not allow physicians to suspect this tumor type. This fact makes physicians be alert for cancer and use the active surgical tactics even if a tumor is supposed to be benign.
